One-legged Mockingbird

The Northern Mockingbird is the official State Bird of Florida.

 

I could think of more colorful entries for Florida's State Bird, but....

 

It is also the State Bird of Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas. It was formerly the State Bird of South Carolina (now the Carolina Wren).

 

The bird in the picture appears to have only one leg, but one leg is seemingly tucked in, a position many birds use when resting.
